Stronger after starts here.

A DIEP flap reconstruction doesn’t just involve the chest—it also involves the abdomen.

During a DIEP flap, skin and fat from the lower abdomen are used to reconstruct the breast while preserving the abdominal muscles. But even though the muscle is preserved, the abdominal donor site still has to heal.

That can mean changes in:
• Core strength and control
• Trunk mobility
• Posture and movement patterns
• Shoulder mobility
• Confidence returning to lifting and exercise

This is where physical therapy can be incredibly valuable. A PT can assess your individual limitations, help restore mobility and strength, address post-operative movement restrictions, and guide your early recovery based on your surgeon’s precautions.

And once you’re healed and medically cleared, there can still be a big gap between “you can exercise” and actually knowing how to train again.

That’s where Strength After Coaching comes in.

If you’ve been cleared after mastectomy or reconstruction but aren’t sure how to safely progress your strength and get back to the activities you love, DM me “STRONG” and let’s talk.

Rebuild. Restore. Reclaim.

Yes — you can lift after a mastectomy. 💪

Rows. Presses. Pulldowns. Carries. Squats. Deadlifts.

These movements don’t automatically become “off limits” because you’ve had breast surgery.

Once you’re appropriately healed and medically cleared, the goal should be to progressively rebuild your capacity, not avoid strength training indefinitely.

That means starting with the resistance and range of motion that are appropriate for YOU, then gradually progressing as your strength, mobility, and confidence improve.

The exercises in this video are examples of movements that can be incorporated into that progression — not a list of movements you need to fear.

You deserve more than just being “cleared.”

You deserve to feel strong again.

Rebuild. Restore. Reclaim.

Getting your shoulder moving again is important—but mobility without strength is only part of the equation.

After a mastectomy or breast reconstruction, changes in mobility, discomfort, guarding, and time away from normal training can all affect how you use your shoulders and upper body.

That’s why rebuilding back and shoulder strength is such an important part of returning to exercise.

Your lats, traps, rhomboids, rotator cuff, and other muscles around the shoulder blade help create the stability and control needed to push, pull, reach overhead, carry, and eventually tolerate heavier loads.

But you don’t have to jump straight back into heavy training.

Start with movements and resistance you can control. Build strength through comfortable ranges. Then gradually increase resistance, range of motion, and complexity as your body adapts.

The goal isn’t to avoid loading your upper body.

It’s to progressively build your capacity to handle it again.

That progression helps bridge the gap between being cleared to exercise and actually feeling strong and confident doing it.

Mobility is important after a mastectomy. But it’s only part of the recovery.

After a mastectomy and/or breast reconstruction, changes in the chest, shoulder, and surrounding tissues can affect how the upper body moves and feels.

Early recovery often focuses on healing and restoring comfortable movement.

But eventually, the goal needs to progress from simply moving the arm to building the strength and capacity to use it with confidence.

Exercises like this can be one piece of that progression—gradually challenging the shoulder through controlled resistance and preparing it for greater demands.

Because getting back to lifting, working out, swimming, playing sports, or simply feeling strong again requires more than achieving normal range of motion.

It requires progressively rebuilding strength, control, and confidence.

Your recovery doesn’t have to stop when you’re medically cleared.

That’s where Strength After begins.

Rebuild. Restore. Reclaim.

Exercise after surgery should be individualized based on your procedure, stage of healing, symptoms, and recommendations from your medical team.

You’ve been cleared. But what comes next?

Strength After Coaching was created for women who have undergone a mastectomy or breast reconstruction and are ready to move beyond simply being “healed.”

Because being medically cleared doesn’t always mean you feel ready to get back to the things you love.

You may still be wondering:

Can I lift heavy again?
Why does my shoulder or chest still feel different?
How do I safely rebuild my strength?
Can I get back to running, swimming, sports, or the gym?
Will I ever feel confident training the way I used to?

That’s where Strength After comes in.

Strength After Coaching provides education, guidance, and individualized exercise coaching to help you understand your body, progressively rebuild strength, and confidently work toward the activities that matter to you.

The goal isn’t just to get back to where you were.

It’s to help you feel strong, capable, and confident in what your body can do next.

Because being medically cleared shouldn’t be the finish line.

It should be the starting point.

Being medically cleared doesn’t always mean you feel ready.

Throughout my career as a physical therapist, I’ve seen how much emphasis is placed on getting someone through the initial stages of recovery.

But I’ve also seen the gap that can exist afterward.

For women who have undergone a mastectomy or breast reconstruction, hearing “you’re healed” or “you’re cleared to exercise” doesn’t necessarily mean you feel ready to get back to lifting, running, swimming, sports, or training the way you did before surgery.

You may still be wondering:

Can I actually do this?
How heavy can I lift?
Why does this movement still feel different?
How do I safely rebuild my strength?
Will I ever feel like myself in the gym again?

That’s why I created Strength After Coaching .

To help bridge the gap between being medically cleared and actually feeling confident, strong, and capable again.

Through education, guidance, and coaching, my goal is to help active women better understand their bodies, rebuild confidence with exercise, and work toward the activities they want to get back to.

Because being medically cleared shouldn’t be the end goal.

It should be the starting point for what comes next.

✨Flexibility vs Mobility✨

Mobility training has become all the rage but what does it actually mean 🤔

Flexibility is the movement and range a joint has passively. People can be incredibly flexible but not have great mobility.

Mobility is the ability to control and utilize your range of motion, this mostly comes from strength training utilizing a full range of motion.

Joints at our shoulders, hips, and mid back require mobility to help us move.

If you feel like you are lacking mobility a Physical Therapist can be a great resource to help address pain and improve mobility.
